Availability

When you can be seen

Same-day appointments are offered when capacity allows and your symptoms need urgent attention. If we cannot see you immediately, we will advise safe interim measures and the soonest slot.

Typical windows

Weekday urgent slots are prioritised for pain, trauma, and infection. Weekend cover varies — call and we will confirm the same day.

What happens next

Call us or book online — we triage every emergency enquiry.

We allocate the next appropriate slot for urgent cases.

You’ll be examined, informed of options, and costs agreed where possible.

Treatment or stabilisation is provided when clinically appropriate.

We’ll arrange follow-up or referral if your case needs specialist care.

Triage questions we may ask

These help us prioritise care and spot cases that need hospital or specialist services instead of a routine dental slot.

Are you in severe pain, bleeding that won’t stop, or swelling affecting breathing or swallowing?

Did you suffer a facial injury or lose a tooth completely (avulsion)?

Is there swelling, fever, or spreading infection?

Are you immunocompromised, pregnant, or recently had dental treatment abroad with new symptoms?

Previous Dental Work (Including Treatment Abroad)

We regularly see patients who have had dental treatment carried out elsewhere, including overseas.

While we will always aim to help where possible, these cases can be significantly more complex and unpredictable than routine dental emergencies.

Important Considerations

Previous treatment may be difficult to assess or interpret

The underlying tooth structure may already be compromised

Materials and techniques used can vary significantly

Symptoms may not reflect the true condition of the tooth

Limitations of Treatment

We may not be able to carry out immediate treatment

We may not be able to repair existing dental work

Some cases require staged care or referral to a specialist

In certain situations, replacement of previous work may be the only predictable option

In some cases, attempting to repair previous treatment may carry a high risk of failure.

Complex Case Consultation

Where additional time and assessment are required, we may recommend a more detailed consultation:

£230 consultation fee

This allows for:

—Extended assessment time

—More detailed diagnosis

—Careful planning of next steps

Important

This will always be explained and agreed before proceeding

This is a diagnostic consultation, not a guaranteed treatment appointment

Immediate resolution is not always possible in complex cases

Our Approach

We will always provide a clear and honest assessment, and guide you towards the most predictable and appropriate solution for your situation.
